Did anyone just see the news segment about WA being shit drivers ?

Couldn't help but laugh when they show filmed footage of bad drivers, one of them happened to be a Silver R33 4door (normal WA plates) driving at warp speed and slamming on the brakes to slow down quickly before tailgating another car!

You d*ckheads the press love it!

Drive anywhere else in the worlds and you will be able to say with much conviction - WA people ARE shit drivers

Though most of them are aged between 40 and 55 and drive company cars..

Yep agree with that .... Italy and Perth are the worst I've come across

Italy, like in Rome is bad...very bad..But on the motorways over there driving is fantastic, I drove all over Europe, no one hogs the 'Fast' lane it is for overtaking pure and simple...once your done move back over...seems so simple...yet the majority of Perth drivers find it so hard! :angry:

Agreed! I loved the motorways around Europe. You could cover a huge amount of of distance in a day.. record was from the top end of Slovenia to halfway down the Croatian coast inside of 6 hours.. :(

No way you could cover half that didstance quickly in this country..

C'mon guys...no matter where you are you will always come across bad drivers. I used to think a lot of drivers in Perth were pretty bad (I especially hate that hogging the fast lane) but I think Perth drivers have nothing on London drivers. I think I would be reluctant to drive around at all :angry:

From what I see, all road rules are thrown out the window (motorways probably a different story). Cars and bikes driving down the wrong side of the road (even with traffic coming the other way). No one ever seems to indicate, lane changes at last minute, turns at last minute (even if people are in the lane next to them that they have to cross). No wonder 80% of cars on the road have scratches and dents on almost every corner. There is also a heap of bump parking. Would hate to have my car here parked on the side of the road.

I cant wait to get home to Perth for some open road and at least some sanity on the road :(

Perth drivers are shit because they are either old or pissed off at the camera that just got them

also has something to do with the amount of cars to main road "arteries" that are around Perth....comon' we have the 4 major freeways into Perth and a couple of other roads with MILLIONS of traffic lights along the way and thats it

shit road design pays for shit driving

EDIT: especially when people are parked in the left lane in the city at peak hour in the morning, now that shits me!

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
